Getting True Love Back Chapter 9
Come on campers. Hurry up! We have important things to do. Since everyone is super excited to know who Courtney's dad is, I decided we're gonna have a cool challenge. You and your partner will each spend two days, one in each, with your parents.
"NOOOOOO!" Courtney yelled.
Sorry Courtney, but your dad approved it. So you will spend a day with Duncan's parents, then one with yours. Good thing your parents live in the same city. Vancouver, at this time of year will be great, right Duncan. Anyway, Trent and Gwen, you guys are going to Montreal, and Toronto. Leshawna and Harold will go to Toronto and Detroit. Bridgette and Geoff will go to Vancouver. Jo and Brick will visit Calgary, and Irricana. Mike and Zoey will visit Winnipeg and Ottawa. Now, be prepare in twenty minutes, you guys will be living soon, but coming back. If either of the couples makes their parents angry with their visits, will be eliminated. Try not to anger anyone.
"Great… Just Great! Now I have to show you where I live and who I live with!" Courtney was really angry. Duncan walked next to her as they both went to their bunks. She then remembered that she would get to meet his parents, too. "But I am excited to meet your parents." she said hugging his torso. He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her head. "Well, you'll be surprised. They are originally from New York, so don't be surprised by their accent." She kissed his chin, "My dad, my siblings and I are from L.A. and my mom is Mexican. I shouldn't have problems with those things." They went in to prepare their bags.
"Gwen, do you think your parents will be happy to meet me?" Trent sounded really scared. She walked to him and kissed his lips. He smiled at her and continued to pack all of his things in the suitcase. He started to pack his socks to finish off his two day luggage. "So do you want to visit my parents or your parents? I'm from Montreal, so we're not that far from each other." he asked her. "I think we should visit my parents' first." she smiled at him. "Alright, tell me about your parents." he said. "Well, my mom is a teacher, and my dad is an architect. They live happy together. We live in a decent size home. How about yours?" she smiled at him. "My mom is City Council Chairman, she is kinda like a mayor, and my dad is a public defender. They both like music, especially Rock and Roll. We live in an average size home too." He turned from his suitcase to her face and kissed her lips.
Duncan and Courtney arrive at Duncan's house. It's seven in the morning. They have to leave at six thirty, the next morning to Courtney's house. Duncan had his and Courtney's suitcase, since they didn't want to bring two suitcases, they brought one with both their clothes in it. He put the suitcase down, rang the doorbell and put his arm around Courtney's waist, "Ma's gonna love you." he whispered to her ear. She kissed his lips, before they heard the door open. His house was Bungalow styled. It was Olive Green with Dark Brown framing. The door was a Mahogany color. His mom was on the open door, she had pink lipstick, blue eye shadow, and black eyeliner. She is on the hefty side, with very unique style. Her outfit was with bright colors. Hot pinks and neon greens, on her shirt, and light blue skinny jeans. She was wearing a name tag with her name on it that said 'Mauricia'. The woman ran up to Duncan and hugged him. "Oh, my little bambino! Guarda come adorabile sono." she was speaking Italian to him. "Ma, I'm not adorable, okay." The woman looked at Courtney with what seem to be the look of complete approval and creepy delightfulness. "And this must be Courtney. Lei e bella come un angelo." She hugged Courtney tightly, "Thank you. I didn't know I was as beautiful as an angel." Both Duncan and his mom looked at Courtney with shock. "You know Italian?" Duncan said. "Yeah, I learned a bit in Florence on a visit there with my parents." Duncan's mom dragged Courtney inside, "Come, you have to meet the rest of the family." Once inside there were hundreds of people there to greet Duncan and Courtney. Courtney and Duncan said hello to all of his family members, including Uncle Vito, and Aunt Cecilia. In the end, they met up with Duncan's dad, who is coincidently a probation officer. He approached Duncan, "I see you haven't gotten into trouble this time. Who is she?" he said looking at Courtney with a suspicious look. "It's Courtney, the girl Dunny keeps talking about while he sleeps on the couch." Courtney laughed at the confession his mom had just given. Duncan grew red with embarrassment. Duncan's dad then said, "My name is Anton. This is my oldest daughter Liza, my oldest son Anton Jr., my second Sofia, my youngest daughter Regina, and Duncan is my youngest." He noticed Courtney smiled at all of them and was happy to hug instead of shake hands. She then leaned into Duncan's dad, hugged him and kissed his cheek. For the first time in his life, Duncan saw his dad grow week from a hug from one of his girlfriends. Usually his dad never allowed such action, but he even hugged Courtney back.
Trent and Gwen arrive at her house. She lives in a small American Foursquare style home. It was brick red, and had white framing. It was small. Gwen let Trent carry their stuff. She knocked on the door and saw her dad answered. "Sweetheart, it is very nice to see you. Come in, how was your trip?" Gwen hugged and kissed her dad, "It was really great. Trent and I fell asleep the entire time." Gwen's dad, a tall and scrawny man, with Raven hair, and brown eyes, and an outfit of Doc Brown from the Back to the Future franchise, looked at Trent, "I'm glad you switched Duncan over. This gentleman looks much more suitable. My name is Rob." he extended his hand to Trent. "I'm Trent. It is nice to meet you sir." In that moment, Gwen's mom walks in. A woman that looked like an average teenager, with jeans and a regular flowery blouse, but her chocolate brown hair and her hazel eyes were magnificent, thought Trent. Gwen got her looks from her mom. Gwen's mom then said, "Gwen, you are back. And who is this handsome man?" she hugged Gwen, then hugged Trent. "I'm Trent. I'm Gwen's boyfriend." Gwen's mom wrapped her arm around Trent's forearms, "So would you guys like to sit down and eat breakfast with us? I made pancakes, eggs, bacon, and hash browns." Trent sat down on the four seat table, "I would love some breakfast. As a matter of fact, I'll help you serve. You didn't introduce yourself, by the way." She turned around, "I'm so sorry, you are correct, I didn't introduce myself. I'm Elaine." Trent hugged her, "It's a pleasure to meet you." Elaine grabbed a plate and began putting eggs, hash brown and bacon on it. She turned to Trent, "So how did you and Gwen meet?" Trent was scared to tell her. He didn't know if it would upset her to tell them he met Gwen, the same way she met Duncan. "Well, we met in Total Drama Island." Gwen's parents looked at him with a surprised look, "Really? But didn't you come out in the Voice? I voted for you, I'm sorry." said Gwen's mom. Trent smiled at her, "My ex-girlfriend Courtney knew how much I wanted to sing, she and her dad suggested that I enter the Voice. But before that, Gwen and I met in Total Drama Island." Gwen's dad looked at him like he was about to punch him, "So you and Gweny dated before, you left her, and then you dated that little rich brat. Why would you choose her over our talented Gweny?" Trent was red with nervousness. He then heard Gwen say, "I dumped Trent because he was kinda getting too clingy, then I basically helped Duncan cheat on his girlfriend, which is also the girl Trent dated during his time on the Voice. When we got back to the island, I cheated on Duncan with Trent, and Trent cheated on Courtney. It really is my entire fault that our relationship didn't work the first time. I had so much more in common with Duncan, I thought being with him would be a better relationship. Now I know I want to be with Trent." Her mom looked at her with pride, "I'm glad you have made your mind up. Trent looks like a good gentleman." They all ate breakfast smiling and talking about Trent's hard time in the Voice.
Courtney and Duncan walked to his old room. It wasn't as Courtney thought it would be. She thought it would be all messy and dark with posters all over the place. Instead it was beige color, with navy blue and powder blue. His bed and the rest of the wood furniture were Birch color wood. His room was neat, and well organized with karate, soccer and baseball trophies. The only thing on the floor was a navy blue rug. On the walls, there was a crucifix and two posters of Hollywood Undead and Avenged Sevenfold. She walked to the bathroom in his room, which was powder blue and navy as well. It was like a four star hotel bathroom. She was starting to like his room a lot, "I see your room is very clean. Why is that?" she giggled at him. "Believe it or not, Princess, I like my rooms clean. I did freak out on Harold over it. Plus, I was always in juvy, so this room never had the chance to see me mess it up. Only when I was a little kid, but back then I shared this room with six other little cousins. Why are you looking at me like if you just saw a baby making goo sounds?" Courtney walked to Duncan who was putting their suitcase on top of the bed, after he showed her the bathroom, he showed her his closet, which was as organized as the room. He lies on the bed and Courtney jumped on top of him. "I just think you and your family are wonderful." She was straddling his thighs, then she lowered herself so she could kiss his lips. He was starting to enjoy it, but his mom walked in, "Dunny, your aunt—Oh! I'm so sorry, I should have knocked! Please forgive me!" Courtney jumped off of Duncan and they both tried to arrange their clothes in place. "Your aunt Lydia is here. When you are ready go down and say hello." Before Mauricia leaves, Courtney asks, "Where will I be staying?" His mom looked at her and began to laugh, "Oh, honey! With what I just saw right now, I doubt you'd be sleeping in another room! Plus, there isn't another room in the house available right now. Just don't have sex, 'cause the house isn't sound proof." Courtney grew red with embarrassment, "Right. Thank you." Mauricia closed the door, leaving Duncan and Courtney by themselves. "Can we get back to the action, Princess? I'm a little excited over here." Courtney looked at Duncan with complete shock, "We were just caught by your mom, and you want us to continue? No, I'm sorry, but no!" Duncan groaned and put his head back on the bed. "Come on, let's go say hello to your aunt Lydia." Courtney dragged Duncan out of the bed. Once they met up with aunt Lydia, the oldest person in Duncan's family, older than his grandparents, she said something that made both Courtney and Duncan cry, "So this is Duncan's wife. She is really beautiful. I can tell you and Dunny will be together forever. You will have four kids, two of them twins, a boy and a girl. You will both be very successful, and you will love each other forever." Aunt Lydia began to cry which made everyone else cry. Courtney ran to the bathroom, sobbing non-stop. Duncan walked to her to try and help. "Court, are you alright?" he opened the door, tears in his eyes. Courtney was on the toilet, "I've never heard anything like that before in my life. It was so beautiful, I wanted to believe it." Duncan kneeled in front of her, "Well maybe you should believe it. She has never said that before about any of my girlfriends. It made everyone, cry. Even my dad, who hates sappy moments, was crying. Babe, let's give it a try. We aren't sixteen anymore, we are twenty. You had a Bachelor's in political studies, I have an Associate's in Engineering. I'm a delinquent, but I'm not stupid. I can go back to school and gate a Bachelor's like you. We can try to make it try, Court. Come on." he kissed her lips slowly. She looked at him, "Duncan, I have a Bachelor's in Film Acting. I have an Associate's in Cinematography. I've spend the past couple of years modeling." she was now sobbing more hysterically, but he smiles at her, "Then we will work with what you got." He hugged her until she stopped crying.
Gwen took Trent to her room. It was black with purple. The walls were a dark purple. It had posters of Marilyn Manson, My Chemical Romance, etc. It was not messy, but it was really dark. The bathroom in her room was grey with black. It was a nice bathroom, much different than her room. He put his things in a chair she had in front of her desk. "Do you want to go to the movies? I heard there is an awesome thriller coming out today." she asked Trent. He walked to her, wrapped his arms around her and kissed her neck, "Yeah, it should be fun to explore Toronto. What movie is coming out?" She turned around and kissed his lips, "The Conjuring. It's based of true events. That should be awesome." He couldn't help but kiss her back, "You and your love for fear striking things. I love you." She started to cry a little, she was feeling a weird pain in her chest. "What's wrong, Gwen? What's wrong?" he asked her. She leaned into him and hugged him tightly, "I don't really know, I'm just crying." Trent hugged her back, to try an ease down her tears, "Oh, honey, you don't have to cry. G, you don't have to cry." She looked at him with surprise, "Did you just give me two nicknames?" Trent was getting scared, " I didn't mean to—" She kissed his lips, "No, I love it. I always wanted pet names."
They arrived at the movie theatre, where Gwen and Trent sat in the area with the railings, to put their feet up. Gwen and Trent held hands throughout the whole film. Only a couple of times did they jump of fear. Once the movie was over, they went to have coffee at the nearest café. "Did you enjoy the movie?" said Trent. Gwen looked at him, "Of course I did. It is my favorite genre. Did you?" she smiled at him. He laughed, "I will admit, I got scared a couple of times, but I figured, being in Total Drama is much worse." He took a sip from his hot chocolate, and watched at Gwen was drawing on her napkin. He was trying to see what was catching her attention away from him, then she turned it around and he saw the picture. Gwen drew a picture of her and Trent. She was copying the picture from her phone. It was a picture they had taken outside of the theatre. "I completely agree that Total Drama is much worse than the paranormal activity experience." she took a big sip of her coffee and then placed her hands on the table. Trent put his on top of hers, "What's wrong, Gwen? You look so distant." She looked at him and laughed, "I'm acting like this because I am really happy that we are dating outside from Total Drama. We don't have to go to the log, or to the woods. We are actually on a date. I really wish moments like these could last life times." Trent stood up and walked to where Gwen was sitting. "Let's go do something else, then. So we can enjoy the rest of the trip." She gets up and they pay their drinks. Trent puts the napkin drawing in his pocket, as they walk out of café. Both are walking down the street, and then Gwen sees a candy shop. They go in and grab little buckets. Gwen started grabbing jelly beans, and Trent grabbed a few jawbreakers. Trent was also trying to get some fun color peanut 'M&Ms'. He remembered his mom would always pack him those. She went every weekend to buy them at the local candy store. "What are you grabbing?" said Gwen. Trent looks at her, "I'm getting some fun color peanut 'M&Ms'. My mom used to get me these when I was younger. I kinda miss them." Gwen walks to him and hugs his torso, "Does someone need mommy?" Trent smiles at her and kisses her cheek, "No, it just reminds me of before my mom started working so hard. It was always so much simpler." Gwen knew that when she met his parents, she'd know what the problem is. It couldn't be good either. Something told her that it was mainly his dad's fault. "So things aren't good at home?" Gwen said. Trent laughed, "I meant it was while she was pregnant. After, she went back to work, and since she worked on some weekends, she couldn't buy me my 'M&Ms' as frequently. Don't worry. My parents really love me a lot." Gwen smiled, and kissed his lips.
Courtney was getting ready for bed, and she went into the bathroom. Duncan was going to the restroom as she was brushing her teeth. "I'm sorry that all of my family was all over you today." He walked to the sink and washed his hands. He then wrapped his arms around her waist and started kissing her neck. "Duncan… That tickles! And the whole family thing, it's okay. I grew up in a half Mexican home. My mom's family smothers too much." She spit into the sink, rinsed her mouth, then turned to get the towel. Before she could, he grabbed her and kissed her. He lifted her up on the sink and the kissed even deeper. He began to remove his shirt, and his pants, till he was only in his underwear. They took off her shirt and her pajama shorts. Both their hands were roaming.
Trent and Gwen got back to her house. They were greeted by Gwen's parents. "We thought we have dinner together, and after we can show Trent to the guestroom." said Gwen's dad. Gwen grew sad. She was hoping she they would be able to spent the night together, as they usually do. After the meatloaf, Trent went to the guest room, where he had a couple of hours to talking to Gwen's dad about his feelings for her. When everything was cleared out, Trent texted Gwen. 'I miss you.' he texted. 'I miss you too.' replied Gwen. The rest of the night was spent with back and forward text about how they each felt lonely without the other, and promises that it will be different when they visit Trent's house. Before Gwen fell completely asleep, Trent texted her something that made her want to cry. 'This is just the beginning to many more visits to the parents'.' Gwen now officially knew things with Trent were gonna be serious and long lasting.
